lyrics

Buried deep down in the south
When County Crow was new
Legend says out in the woods
A wizard lived there too

They say his beard was white as snow
His skin like leather hide
He wore a robe of starlight and treated people kind

When bees bit little Tommy's eyes
The old man made some tea
And after screaming through the night
The little boy could see

One day a preacher came to town
His wide hat just as broad
His sermons preached witchcraft
And the mighty wrath of god

He taught the town to fear the gifts
That blessed their livelihoods
And soon the town marched on the man
Who lived out in the woods

Led by the preacher, torches lit
They stormed the Wizard's land
But some crows flew ahead of them
And warned him of their plans

The wizard of Crow County always had a cure
Healing with the magic of the forest and the stars

He stood outside his wooden shack
Waiting for the crowd
And when their fire reached his eyes
He spoke and stood his ground
I've been good to this town
I've helped you build your lives
But if you want I'll up and go the sad old wizard cried

Without another word he went, cats following his steps
The mob descended on his shack
And stole the land he left

And now the town lies destitute
The wizard's curse they say
He who never hurt a soul or had cruel things to say

He could have burned the land to ash
Or plagued their crops for years
But all the wizard left behind
Was suffering and tears

So think on of the wizard and County Crow's downfall
You can use your hands to heal your friends
Or you can damn them all

The Wizard of Crow county always had a cure
Healing with the magic of the forest and the stars
The Wizard of Crow county used his gifts to heal
If only man could understand the power he could wield

The Wizard of Crow County lives to serve mankind
A legend or a myth they say of magic left behind

The wizard of Crow County lives in every town
